Win10-x64: Could not parse or process the unattend answer file

Hello
I am trying to update the installfiles for our "win10-x64"-package (from Win 10
1803 to
1909).
After the update, I get this error during Windows 10 installation:
Could not parse or process the unattend answer file [C:\Windows\Panther\unattend.xml] for pass [specialize]. The answer file is invalid.
If I revert the installfiles to "Windows 10
1803" the installation works fine...
I have tried creating a new winpe image from a manually installed Windows 10
1909, but the same error occurs.
Do you have any idea what I am missing?
Alternatively can you upload a unattend.xml-file which you know is working with Windows 10
1909.. Then I can try with that one.

Try using this one ( just rename it and put it in your custom folder )

I will try that file
What is the "correct" way to change the default properties (for win10-x64) for all clients?
- Should i just replace the variables in the unattend.xml-file with our own defaults?
- Can the defaults be changed (for all clients, also future clients) from the configed-gui?
- Should the "win10-x64"-package be extracted and then changed defaults with "-p ask" (what about future versions)?
Regards

Hi Soren,
you can change it the third way you suggested, but you could also get into the depot configuration in the conifged, there you can change default property values.

When I try to upgrade from windows 7 to Windows 10 build 1909 it:
1) switches to opsiSetupUser
2) installes files
3) reboots
4) Windows installation
5) logs automatically in as opsiSetupUser (Windows 10)
6) I click no cortana, no error repoert to microsoft, no penwriting, no no no no no until windows starts
7 ) starts opsiclientd_event_starter_asInvoker.exe and hangs there forever
(also the opsi client window doesn't show up on startup under windows 10 anymore)
8) When I restart it still logs automatically into windows 10 as opsiSetupUser and the opsiclientd_event_starter_asInvoker.exe appears
according to the OPSI Config Editor the Installation is still running
it happens on every PC in my company so I can't roll it out yet without having a lot of work to do.
The Microfoft tools works better but compromise the whole bandwidth with several win 10 downloads
I would prefer the OPSI package but how to make it work till the end?

Please open a new thread as your question is regarding the win10-upgrade template...

Hello again
I am not able to locate the file.
Is it possible that I can get a download-link?

Replacing the unattend.xml with the template did the trick.
I compared them side by side in JEdit but was unable to see any differences.. but it helped, so im happy.
Thank you for the help.
